I have been taking the Membrosia Combo for a couple of weeks. I was wondering if it would be beneficial to also take the Trehalose Complex also? The Membrosia Combo does have some Trehalose in it.

And, if beneficial to add Trehalose to my supplements would it be OK to add it in with my Membrosia Combo - I mix my Membrosia Combo with Black Cherry Juice Concentrate.

Hope to hear soon

I am also confused.. I think the intro was great for Trehalose as a sugar ..

Yet, then the message got confusing with: the addition of D-Ribose as a cleanser of the brain and other spots. So what is more important? Dr D said that the D-Ribose is way more expencive than the Trehalose.

I wonder if my interpretation is corrcect? Meaning for sugar buy plain Trehalose on the internet.. Some here have good connections to it.

,.. for body issues us the Trehalose Complex with D-Ribose.. or the Mebrosia Complex as it has even more good things in it.

Being here is invaluable, but not enough. We need ALL the Doctors. I needed them for a very small cancer spot-I could never feel!!! Please do your mammograms! Doing so saved me from cancer later on. I am grateful! Thanks for learning from my experience! I was lucky! I wish the same for YOU!

I'm taking additional D ribose (on my own) because of muscle issues that weren't being resolvedwith anything else I was trying. I feel ribose has given me sustaining energy which has allowedme to exercise a lot longer than I had been....has the ability to naturally balance (or even lower) blood sugar as one of the side effects is that it can cause hypoglycemia. That hasn't happenedto me though.. D ribose also helps the cell to create energy by elevating ATP.. I'm taking it for fibromyalgia and I like I how I feel on it.

Although there is a tiny bit of d ribose in the membrane complex, I feel I need a lot more. AndI have to take extra fish oil daily or I get a headache from the omega 6 in the oil formula. Priorto my switch to the new complex I was getting 1 T of flax oil, 1 T of lecithin, 2 pills of Uridineand juice. Kind of felt my own mixture was more balanced for my needs. But meanwhle, gotrid of the headache by taking more fish oil to compensate for the much less flax oil I was gettingper day. Not sure if my own homemade membrosia combo wasn't better than the one size fitsall approach. I'm not someone who ever does well on omega 6 oils. My body seems to havea very high need for omega 3 oils. And maybe this is characteristic of blood type A2. Animalproteins (poultry, eggs) other than fish often make me feel achy.

Interesting. I bought the Membrosia Complex and oil right around the time I got the itching symptoms which I'm pretty sure was caused by something else but I stopped taking it so that I could figure out what was going on. I just finished the last of the Trehalose Complex I had on hand so this morning I put some of the complex in my juice without the oils. Leaving on my trip on Friday and I think I'll just order some Trehalose Complex and have it delivered there along with a few other things I need. I'll try the Membrosia when I get back. Don't want to deal with odd symptoms while travelling....I'll have to try and see what works.

I continue to prepare my membrosia according to the old recipe by Dr. D + uridine, and now I add walnut oil to the flax seed oil, both SWAMI diamonds. I intend to add also black cumin oil, which is not rated in SWAMI.

I separate the Trehalose Complex, taken first thing in the morning in lemon water, from Membrosia, made later in the day. Instead of 1 T flax seed oil, I now make the membrosia with 3 oils: flaxseed oil, walnut oil, and black cumin oil, 1/2 a tsp of each, thus taking half the amount of oil.

I have started to make the membrosia with soy lecithin granules, which had always been putting me off, long before BTD. So I'm planning to switch back to egg yolk lecithin, which I clearly enjoy.

The powder was under-filled in many of my containers. (I ordered enough for 3 months forDH and I)....

I've run out of powder before using up the oil. In one powder container, it seemed short by about6 days. So two containers of powder doesn't last long enough for me to use up one bottle of oil.

I can't imagine that my American measuring teaspoon is wrong. Honestly, why can't a little plastic scoopbe included? I rarely buy any American powdered supplements that don't come with a portion scoop. I thinkthe cost would be ridiculously low and make it so easy for people everywhere to measure accurately.

BTW, I was measuring very accurately.....leveling off each teaspoon with a knife. Some containers were okay,others were under filled.

Thanks, I hadn't given any thought to the tsp. being a different size.

Andrea; not sure if your offer was directed to me. I would love that, but unfortunately I live in Canada on the west side. It continues to bug me that I was in New York City last fall and would have loved to have seen you, but I was traveling with a big family group and they had our schedule pretty tight.

I run out of powder before I use up the oil. In one powder container, it seemed short by about6 days.

All the powder containers feel under filled to me, because DNP used a larger container than was necessary to hold the contents. I presume that is the the size containers they had, so they use it.

Likely I got the 105 grams that I was supposed to. I was concerned that normally Lecithin is normally fluffy/light, it seemed like it might be more compact after mixing with the other powders. If the powder mixture did compact/settle the volume might be a little less.

I have not used my powder in such a way that I could determine if it was short weight or volume. I think that in my case that I was not short it is just that the powder container is the same size as the trehalose complex container and with the membrosia powder weighing 105 grams instead of 240 grams, the container is less full.

Calculating how much should be gotten:

The liquid should give 32 servings (package claims 31).

The powder containers should last 15 days.

So if one measured everything exactly and had no waste one should normally have a little bit of the liquid left after using up two powder containers. But the amount of liquid left should be enough for one or two days and not six.

It is entirely possible that in the manufacturing of this powder that initially, there was an error inhow these containers were filled. If done by machine, was there anyone checking to see that containers were reaching maximum weight. I wished I had called NAP at the beginning.....when I first got my order. The first container I opened looked very light....but the second container was lighter than that...I had to open a 3rd container of powder way before I even used up the first bottle of oil. And I keep falling behind with every container of powder. RIght now, I'm one fullcontainer of powder behind the oil.

I've got 3 bottles of oil left and 5 containers of powder. I should have 6 containers ofpowder to use for the next 6 weeks.

Directions: Mix two (2) level teaspoons of Membrosia Complex and one and a half (1.5) teaspoons of Membrosia Fluidizer in 4-6 oz. of a beneficial juice in the morning. Avoid consuming any fatty foods for fifteen minutes after taking Membrosia.

Maybe shaking these containers before opening would fluff the stuff up and make the measuring more accurate. I do that all the time with my protein drink mix from DPN. Powders can certainly become more concentrated if they are not shaken up.

But Chloe's suggestion about a little spoon/cup seems right on target to me.

The membrosia powder is now packaged with a little measuring spoon/cup. Easy to get the perfect amount.
